About Katie
Katie Rennison is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on anxiety and related stresses. She offers a calm, listening presence and aims to help people make sense of hard feelings. Katie holds BACP and has three years of counselling experience.
She welcomes people who want a steady space to talk and reflect. Katie uses a person-centred approach that puts the client's experience at the centre. She listens with empathy and without judgement, helping people feel understood before planning next steps.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around each person rather than following a single fixed method. Her background includes two years working as an in-house counsellor for NHS doctors. In that role she supported people with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, ADHD, autism and recovery from addiction.
That work broadened her experience of practical, everyday struggles as well as complex stressors. Katie has a particular interest in how trauma affects wellbeing. She draws on trauma-focused methods alongside mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to help people manage symptoms and find coping strategies.
The aim is to build skills that fit someone’s life, not to force a rigid treatment plan. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Katie aims to create a respectful, accepting atmosphere where people can explore feelings, practice new coping tools and plan small steps forward.
She welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and will work with you to find an approach that suits your needs.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centred therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows your pace, helping you feel understood before deciding what to try next. This approach suits people wanting a supportive space to talk through anxiety, stress or relationship concerns.Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices alongside everyday reflection. It helps with worry, low mood and racing thoughts by teaching ways to notice feelings and reduce reactivity. These skills can be practised between sessions to manage symptoms day to day.
The therapist will work together with you to decide which approaches fit best. That collaborative process looks at your goals, current difficulties and what feels most helpful. Plans are regularly reviewed so methods can be adjusted as you progress.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video lets you meet face to face from wherever you are; phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited; live chat and text are useful for short check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or other commitments, while still accessing registered or accredited professionals.
